Pemaquid by the Sea

We had fantastic weather and a splendid ride last
Sunday through Wings Mills, Belgrade, No. Augusta and Mount Vernon, and a
delightful post-ride party with great food and company. An outstanding day for
Ken's Hot Dog Ride - in every respect! Many thanks to Ken for leading the ride,
hosting the post-ride gathering, and grilling up some great hotdogs. Thanks,
Ken!

This Sunday's KVBC ride will return to the scenic
Pemaquid Peninsula with a great ride along the shore. The route is not only
scenic, but also a great trip to the ocean, and there are many great places to
stop and see the sights. We have also been invited to lunch at Connie and John Towne's home on Muscongus Bay just north of Round Pond village on the scheduled return route. Hope you can join us!

HIGHLIGHTS: scenic roads within the Pemaquid
Peninsula, fresh and salt water views abound.

LEADER: David Lipman.

Kennebec Valley Bicycle Club rides are open to
members and to the cycling public. Helmets are required of all riders at KVBC
events. It is also recommended that you bring with you on KVBC rides: a map of
the area in case you stray off route; tools for simple roadside repairs,
especially a tire pump, spare tube and/or patch kit; water bottles or hydration
systems; personal ID and a small first aid kit; and money for purchasing snacks
& drinks en-route. In case of severe weather, scheduled rides may be
postponed or designated as "show & go" rides at the discretion of the ride
leader.

We welcome suggestions for improving our rides and
encourage active participation of all members. For more information, contact
Jim Merrick at hjmerrick@gmail.com or check out the KVBC
Facebook page.

Welcome to POSTED ROADS, the Weblog of the Kennebec Valley Bicycle Club (KVBC).

The Kennebec Valley Bicycle Club (KVBC) sponsors recreational road rides in the Central Maine area. The KVBCwelcomes all cyclists to join in our rides along the many scenic back roads and lakes, rivers, and forests that grace our neck of the woods. Many of our rural roads are "posted" in late winter to limit access to heavy motor vehicles which damage roads during the seasonal freeze-thaw cycle. POSTED ROADSare harbingers of spring and months of fine cycling ahead. For club cycling news keep an eye on our weblog, POSTED ROADS, where we will post information on the roads we will travel on upcoming rides, as well as other features of interest to our members. We hope you will join us onPOSTED ROADS!
